Description:
In 2004, CITGO’s Center of Excellence Turnaround Team examined its refineries’ performances on turnarounds over the 3-year period of 2000 - 2002. While the average final cost of the turnarounds was only 4% over the budgeted costs, the actual cost for 37 of the 56 turnarounds fell outside of the ±10% target range. The Turnaround Team’s challenge was to develop a “Process” that could produce more consistent and reproducible results. This paper describes how the Turnaround Team developed a list of all the things that historically have caused turnarounds to fail and then developed a process to prevent/mitigate every identified type of failure. The “Process” that was developed was a unique type of stage-gated process, with “teeth” in it, which eliminates excuses for failures. It is simple, practical, and effective.
